5 year old new dancer
Hello, I’m just trying to get as many opinions as possible for my daughter who is has just started dance this month. She is 5 and starting kindergarten next month. She has done 2 weeks of dance camp at our local studio , which is acro and hip hop and she wants to continue in the fall. Her best friend is already in the studio’s company so she wouldn’t be able to dance with her now, but for now she aspires to eventually.
My real question is, do you think I should put her in certain classes and which classes do you think would give her a strong foundation in dance? September is the start of the real season so I have to decide & I was going to just stick with the acro and hip hop since she has liked that so far. She has tumbling experience. But I’m wondering if she should get the dance experience and technique from maybe, ballet?
I’m really not sure because I was a cheerleader, but I want to set her up for success if this is what she wants to do! Let me know your thoughts!
